Conophytum obcordellum ssp ceresianum Seeds
South African Indigenous Succulent Mesemb
Conophytum is a genus of South African and Namibian succulent plants that belong to the family Aizoaceae. The name is derived from the Latin conus and Greek phytum. The plants are also known as knopies, waterblasies, sphaeroids, conos, cone plants, dumplings, or button plants. They are well adapted to pot culture and are quite happy on a sunny windowsill. In their distribution range they do well in rockeries. Next to Lithops, Conophytum is the most popular genus of the Mesembs.
Conophytum obcordellum ssp ceresianum distinguishes for the very finely splattered markings and forms a dense mat. Flowers are larger than for the type and tend to be cream to rich purple in colour rather than white often with pink staminodes.
